LundHalsey x-Type Broadcast Air Console, Small- Height Adjustable

Product Overview

The LundHalsey x-Type Broadcast Air Console (Small, Height Adjustable) is a compact sit-stand broadcast console designed for space-constrained on-air positions, radio broadcast studios, single-operator production rooms, and corporate broadcast facilities where a full-featured height-adjustable broadcast desk is required in a minimal footprint. This small-format height-adjustable console retains all core x-Type features — concealed 19-inch rack-mount bays, interchangeable modular equipment pods, integrated cable management, and the Kontrol Touch height interface — in the most space-efficient configuration of the x-Type Air family.

Product Description

The x-Type Air Console Small addresses broadcast environments where operator position space is at a premium but professional-grade equipment integration and ergonomic height adjustment cannot be compromised. It is the appropriate choice for radio on-air consoles, podcast studio positions, single-camera production desks, and corporate AV control positions where the larger Medium and Large footprints would exceed available floor space.

Despite its compact form factor, the Small configuration maintains the x-Type's defining structural features. The steel-fabricated wedge body conceals 19-inch rack-mount fixings behind a clean front panel, supporting broadcast AV hardware integration without visible rack equipment at the operator surface. Interchangeable modular equipment pods on the console surface allow AV system designers to place patch access, signal monitoring hardware, or communications equipment exactly where operators need it. Work surface and rear cable management access panels keep broadcast signal cabling organised in installations with high connector density. The Kontrol Touch height adjustment interface provides programmable sitting and standing position presets, giving individual operators quick access to their preferred ergonomic position. The high-gloss end panels with LED accent lighting maintain the professional broadcast studio aesthetic consistent across the x-Type product family. This console is available through Creation Networks for broadcast integrators, AV system designers, and facilities managers across the United States and Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Small configuration suitable for a single on-air operator position?

A: Yes. The Small x-Type Air Console is specifically suited to single-operator positions in radio studios, podcast production rooms, corporate broadcast desks, and small TV on-air positions. It provides full broadcast-grade equipment integration in a footprint that fits space-constrained studio layouts.

Q: Does the Small console still support 19-inch rack-mount equipment?

A: Yes. All x-Type consoles, including the Small, include concealed 19-inch rack-mount fixings within the steel wedge structure. The exact rack unit capacity of the Small configuration — which will be less than the Medium and Large — is available from Creation Networks or LundHalsey upon request.

Q: Can I upgrade from a Small to a Medium or Large configuration later?

A: The x-Type is a modular console family, and LundHalsey offers design services to help facilities plan for future expansion. Whether a direct upgrade is possible depends on the specific installation. Contact Creation Networks to discuss upgrade paths and modular extension options for your studio.

Q: What is the height adjustment range for the x-Type Air Console?

A: Exact height adjustment range specifications are not published on LundHalsey's website. Contact Creation Networks or LundHalsey directly for the sit-to-stand height range applicable to this SKU to verify compliance with ergonomic standards for your facility.

Q: Is this console appropriate for a radio broadcast studio?

A: Yes. The x-Type Air Console Small is well-suited to radio broadcast studio positions, where operators require a professional desk with integrated equipment bays for audio console interfaces, patch panels, and signal monitoring hardware in a compact footprint.

Q: How does the modular pod system work for broadcast applications?

A: Modular equipment pods are interchangeable inserts in the console work surface that can hold specific broadcast hardware — such as metering panels, patch access, communications interfaces, or control surfaces — without surface cabling. Pods can be reconfigured as production requirements change.

Q: What support does Creation Networks provide for this product?

A: Creation Networks provides procurement, AV integration consulting, and project coordination for LundHalsey consoles in the US and Canada. The Creation Networks technical team can assist with broadcast system design, AV equipment rack specification, and coordination with the LundHalsey project management team for installation support.
